Humidifiers For Baby

Humidifiers add moisture to the indoor air and so can help your baby breathe easily, especially when he is ill. The FDA doesn't recommend to treat children under two-years with some cold remedies and in this case installation of a humidifier may be very useful and worthy. Regulation of humidity level in the nursery will alleviate cold symptoms, prevent diseases and reduce skin and eye irritations, caused by dry air.

There are two main types of air humidifiers and they are cold-mist and warm-mist. Both of these models are efficient in humidifying, but more and more pediatricians recommend the usage of cool-mist units for safety reasons. The advantage of cool-mist appliances is that there is no risk of scalds from accidentally spilled water or contact with the stream. In addition cool-mist devices are energy-efficient, as they consume little energy to run; they can efficiently humidify larger rooms and they are easier to maintain.

Experts recommend to maintain the units thoroughly, because clean humidifier helps to keep your baby healthy. Some general instructions are: change water daily, clean water tank every three days and use distilled water only. Well maintenance guarantee long-lasting performance and efficient operation.
